Embrace Activism ~ Yoga Accessories Breast Cancer Awareness Prize Package {Giveaway}

  • Sharebar

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED

No one wants to hear the words, “You have cancer.” Family and friends can feel helpless when a loved one is battling a serious illness. Rather than feeling helpless, Karen Whittier, Activist and Owner and Creator of Embrace Activism wanted to influence fate. She started by taking steps – LITERALLY – to end breast cancer by participating in a Breast Cancer 3 Day Walk…but she wanted to do more. When I tell ya this woman is amazing, that’s an understatement! She’s on a crusade to stamp out breast cancer and every disease she comes across! She has my utmost admiration and support!

It was while training for the 2009 Seattle 3 Day Walk that she developed the idea for Embrace Activism. Embrace Activism produces premium yoga products that make a difference. Her first color line, pink, benefits the fight against breast cancer. 10% of the price of each product is donated to non-profit organizations working to end breast cancer and/or in treating breast cancer patients.

Karen offers other color lines, each associated with an awareness color, and makes donations to their RESPECTIVE CHARITIES. In this way yoga’s health benefits are extended beyond the practitioner creating purpose-driven yoga.

I was Blessed to receive a Samadhi Yoga Accessories Set for review. I was super excited when this arrived and even more so when I opened the box and found all the wonderful goodies inside! Whether you practice yoga in a studio, at home, or you practice other forms of exercise this wonderful kit will be such an asset to you!

Your kit will includes

  • Yoga Mat – Why not have a yoga mat that makes you smile and inspires you! This one is bright pink with the Embrace Activism logo on it!
  • Yoga Block – Blocks are props to make yourself more comfortable and improve your alignment. Blocks are great for standing poses in which one hand is on the floor. You can also sit on them. As you can see in the picture below this block has the beautiful Embrace Activism logo for breast cancer awareness on it!
  • Yoga Strap - Straps, also called belts, are particularly useful for bound poses if your hands do not reach each other, and for poses where you need to hold onto your feet but cannot reach them.
  • Water Bottle – Not just any water bottle! No Ma’am! This is a beautiful dark pearlized stainless steel water bottle with a sippy top!
  • Flip-Flops – Pink & Black, sized to fit all! You guessed it, the Embrace Activism logo is on the bottom:)
  • Carry-All Tote – All your products come in this huge zippered doubled handled tote with adjustable shoulder strap!

Price – $85.00

*Latex -free, phthalate-free foam is used for mats, blocks and flip-flops. Eco-friendly ink is ued in printing. Water Bottle is BPA-free! It’s stainless steel!


Embrace Activism donates 10% of the retail price of each item purchased to non-profit organizations dedicated to research, treatments, and CURES. Click HERE for the list of charities Embrace Activism supports.

    Embrace Activism is amazing they give 10% of all sales to non-profit organizations for Breast Cancer, AIDS, Prostate Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, Leukemia and Lymphoma, Diabetes, Lupus, and Gynecological Cancers. There are very few that I don’t see. Another great cause to donate to would be Alzheimer’s such a debilitating disease.

    I learned that the idea for Embrace Activism came while training for the Seattle 3 Day (I have done the 3 Day in Tampa three separate years).

    As for a cause they could Embrace, what about the Alzheimer’s Association. They do memory walks and other events.

    Thanks so much for introducing us to Embrace Activism. Very cool that they are making statements through cool pink yoga mats. I also found that they support MS, Amer Heart Assoc and more! What a great organization! I would love to help spread the word!
